USE
GB
Operation
Insert the plug into the wall socket.
Open the refrigerator door and turn the
thermostat knob, clockwise, beyond the «O»
(STOP) position.
The appliance will start to operate.
Temperature regulation
The temperature is automatically regulated and
can be increased to achieve a higher
temperature (warmer) by rotating the thermostat
knob toward lower settings or reduced (colder)
rotating the knob towards higher settings.
However, the exact setting should be chosen
keeping in mind that the temperature inside the
refrigerator depends on:
room temperature;
how often the door is opened;
the quantity of food stored;
location of appliance.
A medium setting is generally the most
suitable.
To stop operation, simply turn the thermostat
knob to position «O».
Important
If the ambient temperature is high or the
appliance is fully loaded, and the appliance is
set to the lowest temperatures, it may run
continuously causing frost to form on the
rear wall. In this case the dial must be set to a
higher temperature to allow automatic
defrosting and therefore reduced energy
consumption.
Freezing fresh food
The 4-star compartment is suitable for
long term storage of commercially frozen food,
and for freezing fresh food. Do not exceed the
storage times shown by the manufacturer on the
commercially frozen food packets.Under normal
circumstances, to freeze fresh foods it is not
necessary to change the setting of the thermo-
stat knob with respect to the normal running
position. Depress the ambient switch at least 3
hours before loading food to be frozen.However,
for a quicker freezing operation, turn the
thermostat knob to the coldest setting; but
remember that, in this condition, the refrigerating
compartment temperature might drop below 0°C.
If this occurs reset thermostat knob to a warmer
setting.To help you make the most of the freezing
process, here are some important hints:
Place the food to be frozen in the top basket of
the freezing compartment as this is the coldest
part.
The maximum quantity of food which can be
frozen in 24 hrs is shown on the rating plate.
Only freeze top quality, fresh and thoroughly
cleaned foodstuffs.
Prepare the fresh food in small portions to
enable it to be rapidly and completely frozen
and to make it possible subsequently to thaw
only the quantity required at the time.
Wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene
and make sure that the packages are airtight.
It is advisable to show on the single food packet
or on the write-on produce strips to be found on
the front part of the storage baskets the
freezing-in date to enable you to keep date of
the storage time.
On the rear of the door you will find a list of
foods followed by a number. These numbers
indicate the maximum period of time for which
the food in question may be conserved (in
months).
Do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food
which is already frozen, thus avoiding a rise in
temperature of the latter.
Important
Do not put carbonated liquids (fizzy drinks, etc.)
in the freezing compartment as they may burst.
Water ices, if consumed immediately after
removal from the freezing compartment, can
possibly cause the skin to be freeze burnt.
Remember that, once thawed, frozen food
deteriorates rapidly.
Storage of frozen food
To obtain the best performance from this
appliance, we strongly recommend that you
make sure that the commercially frozen
foodstuffs were adequately stored by the retailer
and, furthermore, be sure that these frozen
foodstuffs are transferred from the foodstore to
the consumer in the shortest possible time (a
temperature increase of the frozen food could
shorten its storage period). It is also advisable
not to exceed the storage period indicated by
the producer of the food. Finally, do not open
the door frequently or leave it open longer than
is absolutely necessary. If there is a power
failure when food is in the freezer, do not open
the door of the freezing compartment. The
frozen food will not be affected if the power cut
is of short duration (a temperature increase of
the frozen food could shorten its safe storage
period), otherwise, it is recommended that the
food should be used within a very short time.
Fig. 9
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used,
can be thawed in the refrigerator compartment or
at room temperature, depending on the time
available for this operation. Small pieces may
even be cooked still frozen, directly from the
freezer: in this case, cooking will take longer.
Ice-cube production
This appliance is equipped with one or more
trays for the production of ice-cubes. Fill these
trays with water, then put them in the freezer
compartment. Do not use metallic instruments to
remove the trays from the freezer.
Fresh food refrigeration
To obtain the best performance:
do not store warm food or evaporating liquide in
the refrigerator
do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a
strong flavour.
Position food so that air can circulate freely round
it.
Useful hints:
Meat (all types): wrap in polythene bags and
place on the glass shelf above the vegetable
drawer(s).
For safety, store in this way only one or two
days at the most.
Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc: these should
be covered and may be placed on any shelf.
Fruit and vegetables: these should be
thoroughly cleaned and placed in the special
drawer(s) provided.
Butter and cheese: these should be placed in
special airtight containers or wrapped in
aluminium foil or polythene bags to exclude as
much air as possible.
Milk bottles: these should trave a cap and
should be stored in the bottle rack on the door.
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not
packed, must not be kept in the refrigerator
Movable shelves
The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with a
series of runners so that the shelves can be
positioned as desired.
Positioning the door shelves
To permit storage of food packages of various
sizes, the door shelves can be adjusted in height.
To make these adjustments proceed as follows:
Gradually pull the shelf in the direction of the
arrows until it comes off, then reposition as
required.

Freezer compartment defrosting
The air humidity that penetrates inside the
appliance when opening its door, accumulates
on the evaporator and particularly on its upper
part, thus creatina a layer of frost. To avoid
excessive formation of frost do not leave the
door open more than necessary. The formation
of a thin layer of frost (as for example on the
front edge of the freezer) does not require
complete defrosting. Eliminate this layer
periodically using a plastic scraper (do not use
knives or sharp objects). If a thick layer has
formed it will be necessary to carry out a
complete defrosting as follows:
1. Take out all the frozen food and wrap it in
newspapers placing it in a container (basin
or paper box, etc.) in a cool piace until the
clearing operations trave been completed.
2. Set the thermostat knob on «O» = stopped.
3. Leave the freezer compartment door open.
4. Do not scrape the ice or frost layer with
sharp objects. Do not use a heat diffuser or
spray.
5. Eliminate the water which formed during
defrosting by means of a sponge or cloth.
6. Clean inside using a normal detergent for
domestic use.
7. After cleaning, dry properly inside.
8. After completing the operations, turn the
thermostat knob to 5-6 and leave it on this
setting for 3-4 hours. After this period set the
knob to a normal position (medium).
9. Place the frozen food in the appliance again.
Refrigerator defrosting
Refrigerator defrosting is completely automatic.
The defrost water drains out through a trough
into a special container provided on top of the
compressor which is located at the back of the
appliance, where it evaporates.
Important
We particularly recommend the periodic
clearing of the defrost water drain. Use the
special cleaner provided already inserted into
the discharge hole (Fig. 11).
Fig. 11
Unplug the appliance before carrying out any
maintenance operation.
Internal clearing
Never use metal objects for clearing your appliance
as it may get damaged.
When performing a complete defrosting, wash the
internal surfaces of the freezer with lukewarm
water and bicarbonate; rinse and then accurately
dry.
External clearing
Wash the outer body with lukewarm water and
soap. Periodically use a clearing polish to keep the
outer body shining. Dust the condenser located
behind the freezer with a soft brush or a vacuum
cleaner. An excessive accumulation of dust might
compromise the freezer’s efficiency.
Extended periods of non-operation
Whenever the freezer is not to be used for an
extended period of time, disconnect it from the wall
socket and empty and clean the freezer.
Remember to leave the door open for the entire
period of time in which the freezer is not to be
used.
Interior light
The light inside the refrigerator compartment is
easy to get at through the opening in the light
holder. If the light does not go on when the door
is open, check that it is screwed into place
properly. If it still does not light up, change the
bulb.
The rating is shown on the light bulb cover.
